Chemistry

CHEM& 110/CHEM& 110L fulfills the chemistry requirement for the AAS degree in Nursing, Fire Science, and certain career tracks in agriculture. It is also ideal for non-science majors who want a lab science course that gives a good introduction to chemical topics important in our technological society.

CHEM& 140/CHEM& 140L is intended for science majors who have not had chemistry in high school and need the chemical and mathematical preparation required for the CHEM& 161, CHEM& 162, CHEM& 163 series. It can also be used to fulfill the lab science requirement for other majors.

CHEM& 121, CHEM& 122, CHEM& 123 is the allied health sequence and is required for respiration therapy, dental hygiene programs at Yakima and Spokane colleges, and certain agriculture career tracks. This course is also suitable for nursing, particularly for those seeking the four-year baccalaureate degree in nursing or other allied health fields. Only CHEM& 121 is a pre-admission requirement for the CBC Dental Hygiene program.

CHEM& 131 provides an overview of organic chemistry and biochemistry for students that do not need the level of detail provided by CHEM& 122 and CHEM& 123. This course is accepted for the baccalaureate degree in nursing at some four-year institutions.
